I want to be at Gregs right now more than i want my next breath... that is all.

I applied there for a job. I will continue to do so until my dream is realised.

I'm still of the belief that Greggs is heaven on earth.

I remember one time when I was doing a work experience stint in Nottingham town center. When it was lunch time I thought to myself 'hmm, better get something wholesome and balanced, like a sandwich'.

I ended up getting like six sauasage rolls and pigged out on a park bench, not giving a single fuck.

YOU SAYIN' AUSSIES DON'T EAT PROPER PIES?! IS THAT IT, ************?!

LEMME TELL YA POMMIE, EACH AUSSIE WORTH HIS WEIGHT IN DINGO DROPPINGS IS A WALKING MEAT-PIE APOCALYPSE IN THEIR OWN RIGHT.



Sorta like this guy, but Aussie and with meat pies instead of American and with heathen non-meat-pie foodstuffs.

And just for the record, I ate a pork pie once. Most horrible thing I've ever tasted (worse than both cheap-shit knockoff mighty-mite and tuna pasta).

I read in scientific journal of science that Aussies who've had too many spider bites to the brain, tend to lose their sense of taste.

It's ok. It's not your fault

I'm guessing this is some kind of poke at America's National Pie Day today?
With out deliciously sweet apple cinnamon pies?

But dear god, I love meat pies. I just ate one an hour ago and it was pretty great.

In all fairness, 99% of those were me bathing in a bathtub full of collected spiders in hopes that I'd become Spiderman.

Thank God the snakes broke in and took care of them, then the crocodiles took care of the snakes, then Steve Irwin's ghost took care of the crocs.

I'm telling the truth now. I had no idea is was National Pie Day in America, I really didn't.

It's like the heavens themselves guided me to take the piss.

Steak and kidney pie with rich gravy and flaky pastry. Beans and chips on the side. Food heaven!

My mother has moved to France and has taken to baking quiches. Now, I have nothing against quiche in principle, but it's not pie, is it?

No, it's what happens when a shitty omlette and shitty pie get together for one night of shitty love and the result of said coupling is the quiche.

The shitty omlette pie.

An abomination.

well im from america so when i think of pie i do think of dessert. however, i have never been a fan of pie (the dessert kind) and i dont eat meat. thus, i have no interest anything pie has to offer
Aah... I see! You are one of those 'not human' kind of people! Nobody in they're right mind could not like meat and pastry...!

Daystar I love your threads, they are so true!
Pies are in fact pure awesome in pastry. Every-time I make someone a pie at work, be it Steak and Ale, Game Pie or the new and improved Chicken, Bacon and Leek Pie, I think to myself; that customer gets it.
Where do you work? Becaus Chicken, Bacon and Leek sounds good!

Awesome, awesome thread. That Cornish Pasty is borderline pornographic.
Every now and again, I am so thankful to be British.

By the way, I fear you may have left one important type of pie out: the Fish Pie. It's a staple of British pubs, goes well with almost any beer/wine/cider, and tastes amazing. Cheap to make too (and fish is basically meat, right?).
I forgot the mighty fish pie! I haven't had that for ages! Awesome stuff!

Man! Greggs is the best! Baked bean slice anyone!?

Whenever I think of "pie" I think of cherry pies or apple pies, despite having your meat pies before at british themed pubs and restaurants.
I like your pies and think they are delish, but having grown up in Canada, pie shall always = dessert.
Sorry? /shrug

Is this thread seriously attempting to assert that British food isn't shit? Because that's a big call to make.

In any case, I think you can put down us Australians as big proponents of the pie as well. We got that from you guys.

I find it sort of absurd to receive a warning for low content in a thread about how great pie is and in particular a line of conversation on how Daystar is immune to aspargus-piss, but hey.
Damn these mods; always skirting about in the shadows.

In any case: I just remembered that I've tasted both blueberry and apple pie, and they were both a lot better than the meaty, gloopy yuckyness that's meat pies.
So there.
